Thanks for the update!

Any updates from your side?

Hi, I was sort of hoping the new beta software would have the new Astrotrac driver, but I didn’t see it in there. Is there any way that you can give us an approximate timeline?

Thanks,

Peter

hello Zwo, I have been patiently waiting for Astrotrac 360 support. Would be nice if you could give us a bit more information about implementing the driver in the Asiair software. Could you please share some?

Hello ZWO,

it has been a while and I was wondering if any progress has been made implementing the Astrotrac 360 driver into the ASIAIR. Thanks, Peter

pogo Hi Pogo, thank you very much for your support, don't have such a plan at the moment.

Oh, thats a bit of a dump! I also have an Astrotrac 360 and just managed to install into my obs. @pogo did you manage to get yours working with the ASIAIR? I read somewhere that it supports INDI drivers and there has been a lot of work done to make a stable driver. Are you running yours with StellarMate or with TheSKY?

pogo

Hi there, that is disappointing, as you indicated earlier that you would look into it. The Indi driver is currently working perfectly. But you do need a StellarMate or similar, which I don’t like as much as Asiair.
with StellarMate it works fine however. I haven’t tried the Sky.

@tech@zwo#54889 Can you please explain why not? The Indi driver is available. Is it very hard to implement such a thing?

thanks,

Peter

Hi ZWO, I would like to once again ask you to consider adding the Astrotrac 360 Indi driver to the Asiair if you can please.

@pogo I have seen your posts here and in other forums regarding the AT360 and it looks like you have managed to get the ASIAir to connect and control the mount. Are you able to post a setup routine on how to do this? I have the last AstroTrac 360 that Richard built and I would be happy to collaborate with you and others, if I could help in any way.
